Likes : I've been wanting to see this film for a while ive been putting it off because i don't like subtitled film that much but i manged to see this film in English dubbed, although the speaking kind of made them look dumb you can kind of forgive that because the action in this film is off the charts.
If you looking for an all out action martial art blood fight scene's this is one to watch, the fight scene choreography is beautiful done as you see ever punch, kick, blade stab & neck breaking in this film which make for a believable action film some scene even i cringe at because it was so brutal.
The director Gareth Evans has made what i could say as a master piece of a action film, starts off pretty much normal nothing really happen until is seriously kick in its like a sh*it storm of a blood thirst film that get kicked in to hype drive.Some of these martial arts are brilliant in showing some amazing martial art hand to hand ,weapon to weapon combat, which lead to a two on one final showdown with one of the most brutal fight scene ive ever seen in a film.
This is a roller-coaster of 101 min of intense bloody combat & brutal fight scene your ever get in a film this is a film i highly recommend you see if you have already if you love the fighting style action movie's,because this one is highly entertaining & keep you glued to the screen, you wont be disappointed.
Dislikes : The Raid is not without flaws. The acting, the dialogs, the CGI, the twist - you know - those usual unconvincing stuff which you can find even in some blockbuster martial arts/action movies, can be improved. But overall it is a superb action movie so I understand the high-praised comments from those film festivals.
Overall : Fast brutal combat, brilliant choreography, best action film your see, a must to watch.
Rating: 5 out of 5 for entertainment / 10 out of 10 for combat scene/ choreography
